Antique Bakery is a Korean movie based on a Japanese Comic Book of same title. (See the article of October) I watched the Premiere of this movie at a theater near home. And I really enjoyed it. Wait and watch it when this movie runs in your own town.

Giovanni's Room is a novel by African-american writer James Baldwin. The narrator of the book is David, a white American. While staying at Paris after proposing to a girl named Hella, he met an Italian bartender, Giovanni and fell in love with him. But David left Giovanni which devastated Giovanni and in the end Giovanni was about to be executed for killing his employer. I don't know since when and why.. But I got obssessed with this story and I finally found a used book (thanks to my friend's help). And that, it's a Korean book. Now I'm waiting the book's delivery.

Maurice is a James Ivory film based on the novel of same title by E. M. Forster. The main Character Maurice is a Cambridge student from rich family. But after a short affair with senior student Clive, he gets dropped out of Uinversity. And he hegitates to accept his sexual desire for men. But while staying at Clive's, he has a visitor at night, Alec, a gamekeeper who works for Clive. They make love and at the end they decide to live together whatever it may bring. I saw this film when I was a Uinversity student. I could relate to Maurice so much and the movie really shook me up and down. I read the book in English before the book got translated into Korean. I bought the book in Korean, as soon as they released it. I bought the DVD from a British online shop, maybe Blackstar or something. So you can tell I'm a huge fan of this book and this movie. And lucky me that one of my friends got me two 'Maurice' books in English.
